Delivered Overtime Elements
This section discusses the earning element and other delivered elements.
PeopleSoft delivers earnings for overtime, but does not maintain these elements.
Global Payroll for France assumes that the pay period is monthly and that the pay period always starts on the first day of the month. If the pay period is monthly, but the pay period does not start on the first day of the month, you can modify the formula HRS FM PRIMES TX to put the first day of the month in the variable HRS VR PRIM DATE. If the pay period is not monthly, you should evaluate the delivered rules and adapt them to the pay periods used by your organization.
The usual calculation method for overtime earnings is Unit x Rate or Unit x Rate x Percent, where:
Unit is a variable that stores the number of hours (entered by positive input).
Rate is a formula that calculates the hourly rate.
Percent is a variable that contains the percentage of the surcharge. Modify this percentage if your company is over the legal percentage.
Note: If you want to pay overtime hours at rates different than those stipulated by law, modify the earning elements to do so. In some cases—for example, HRS SUP 125%— PeopleSoft includes the surcharge percentage in the name of the element. If you modify the percentage in such a delivered element, then the name of the element and the percentage it represents will not match and this could prove confusing to your payroll personnel. In such cases, PeopleSoft recommends that you create your own elements.

HRS COMP |
Number of additional hours paid (100 percent). |
HRS COMP 125 |
Number of additional hours paid (125 percent). |

HRS RED COTI |
Contribution reduction due complementary or supplementary hours as result of Law 2018-1213 effective from January 2019. It is defined as base multiply by rate, where Base is the amount of complementary and supplementary hours with certain limit. The rate is equal to the sum of the rates of each of the employee pension insurance contributions due by the employee. In the case of an employee affiliated to the general scheme and whose remuneration is lower than the social security ceiling, this rate is equal to 11.31% (that is, 7.3% of basic old-age insurance and 4.01% supplementary pension). |
The element group HRS EG OVERTIME includes all of the earnings used to process overtime hours.
Note: PeopleSoft delivers a query that you can run to view the names of all delivered elements designed for France.
Managing Rates Used in Overtime Earning Calculations
In Global Payroll for France, the rate used to calculate overtime pay is based on the employee's base salary. If, during a month, the base salary changes and there is element segmentation of the base salary element, the overtime rate could change from one week to another. For this reason, for all of the earnings listed in the previous table except HRS REP COMP, you can override the system element RATE AS OF DATE. This system element is used to determine the correct hourly rate for overtime work. By default, the RATE AS OF DATE is the segment end date, and the system retrieves the rate that is active as of this date. However, you can define the RATE AS OF DATE as the last day of the week if you want overtime pay to be calculated with the effective-dated rate code for the specific week in which the overtime hours were worked. For example, if your standard pay period is monthly, but you enter overtime on a weekly basis, you might need to override the RATE AS OF DATE when there is a salary change in the middle of the month, as the rate code values used in the calculation of overtime can vary based on salary amounts, and the correct rate to apply would be the rate in effect for the employee just prior to the salary change—not the rate in effect at the end of the monthly pay period. If you do not need to capture salary changes during the month and prefer to apply the same rate for the full month, you can simply record one positive input entry with the sum of each week's overtime hours.
Note: To override the rate as of date, enter a supporting element override for the system element RATE AS OF DATE at the same time that you enter positive input for the overtime earning. The system will then use the rate code that is "active" as of this date.
Managing Premiums
In some cases, the rates used to calculate overtime pay may consist of the rate code value plus a premium added to this value. In Global Payroll for France, the premiums that are added to the standard rate are contained in the accumulator HRS AC CAL PRIM SG. You are responsible for maintaining this accumulator, and for maintaining the formula HRS FM SALBAS TX H which retrieves the correct rate code values. To add a premium to the base salary used to calculate overtime pay, modify the HRS FM SALBAS TX H formula as follows:
Note: PeopleSoft does not deliver earnings that use the specific rate premium setup described here; if you decide to create such earnings, you should define the premium and add it to the accumulator HRS AC CAL PRIM SG so that it is considered in the overtime rate calculation.
Note: You can use the system element RATE AS OF DATE to retrieve the premiums of the current month or of the previous month. This is because some companies pay overtime hours with a one-month delay.
